I think the bug and the cost were not that the cost was different at that time of day, but that by running at night without worry of interruption her script ran multiple times doing upload after upload after upload. If it had been during the day they would only have a few succeed because the line would get interrupted or couldn’t be used. Maybe during the day they’d only succeed on 3-5 calls but at night the script was making 50, 60, maybe even 70 calls.

Yes, normally Neutral Good but will go Chaotic Good if the corral is empty or pretty much empty. I’m lawful good if I only have a free things or there is no corral, but in those cases I try to avoid bringing the cart back to the car.

I’d be more inclined to think teenagers took it for hijinks, but I’m not familiar with the neighborhood where you found it, of course

Spent the past couple weeks in France visiting my wife’s family, and was surprised that most of the stores had the coin locks but were not using them, as in they had all been disconnected so you didn’t need to use a coin to release them. I think the only store we needed coins at was E.Leclerc.

I think the old plastic rings have been banned in some states. For cans I’ve mostly seen beer cans now coming in a thicker but more widely recyclable ring. Sometimes they come in paperboard boxes like the larger packs do and suspect that’s where the industry is moving. I’ve still seen something like the old rings come with soda in plastic bottles. Really not sure why they haven’t changed.

This has been around since 2016, though only available for sale since 2018. It uses waste byproducts of the brewing process to create a biodegradable/compostable cardboard-like substance. It can be consumed by some animals like manatees/turtles/fish but it’s not really intended to be fed to them, just more that it’s safe if it ends up in the environment.

Why should a washing machine need updates to begin with?

Yes, but you said you were using Resolve for color grading. My understanding is you should still be able to use that on Linux, but I haven’t tried it yet myself.

If you’re willing to consider something not Wear OS, Garmin watches offer many of the same features and typically multiple days of battery life.

*forked to Mbin now.

It’s not FOSS (IIRC) but I think Resolve is fully available on Linux?

People used to post Piped/Invidious links all the time, but that eventually became a problem because it meant the link often went to a different proxy than the one that might be a user’s preferred server, and it made it harder to copy the link for use with a preferred server. After some discussion, the consensus became that people should just post the YouTube URL as the main link so users could utilize the preferred proxy they likely already have configured, and then (optionally) include a Piped/Invidious link in the body text for those who don’t currently use a proxy but would like to try it.

Digging deeper by following the link to List of gaps in Interstate Highways, the Pennsylvania Turnpike Authority is finally fixing this:

Local businesses have lobbied to keep the gap to avoid a perceived potential loss of business. Despite this, the Pennsylvania Turnpike has announced plans to close this gap by directly connecting I-70 to the Turnpike in September 2024. Completion of the construction is expected in 8-10 years.

Having not watched the video, was the leak a real accident or one of those times where governments decide to experiment on their own soldiers without telling them they’re in an experiment?

I’d be surprised if this takes down Broadcom altogether, but could certainly kill the division. Oracle still exists, after all, even though they basically killed Sun and Java.

Wait, she went on parental leave from her job, as in having a newborn baby, and used that time to get a master’s degree? Either the baby didn’t spend much time with mom or the degree is a joke, because I have a really hard time imagining having the energy to work on a serious master’s degree in a year or less while taking care of an infant!

I would like to have seen Montana.

The only thing in the article where Apple seems remotely unhappy is they found some of the tests ambiguous and voluntarily lowered some of their scores by one level in case a third-party tests differently. So by their testing the battery life gets an A, but they’re labeling it as a B just to be safe. They might not like the labeling, but many of their flagship competitors aren’t going to be doing noticeably better than them on most of the metrics.
